i think michelle obama would be fantastic as a member of elected office. i think it's also interesting, they, the president, sort of caught a lot of flak saying, this is a big political week, all heads of state, here in the new york at the u.n. and you are like, you know, hanging out with the lady of "the view." my response is, hey he is the president. why not. he needs to speak to the viewers. this is an election year. i think he can do more things than a lot of thing at once. i think he's a multitasker. >> and he snuck it in. he snuck in 20 minutes of his day. i'm sure hee did a lot of the other things that he's being criticized for. the president was asked if a romney presidency would be a disaster? he replied saying the nation can survive a lot, but this nation, in his words, wants to thrive. >> so diplomatic. we know romney's going to be on "the view" in october. i look forward to that. >> we do too. >>> four teens are under arrest. a soccer coach has been suspended in a hazing scandal in a high school near los angeles. more than 70 people have been q

romney mentioned jobs ten times more than obama. so the distinction there. but i think it was a solid, solid speech, but those speeches beforehand from former president bill clinton and michelle, that was a tough act to follow. >> they don't have burden of being in office. joe can come out swinging, clinton can come out swinging. they do the dirty work. the president has to appear presidential and take the high road. he didn't want to get down -- he took a few good, solid body shots at mitt romney, but it wasn't the full frontal that i think you saw in other cases here. he did focus heavily on foreign policy. that was, i think, a rebuttal to romney not mentioning afghanistan, the war at all in his speech first time in 52 years, war has not been in the speech. that's why it is so heavy. again, let the analyses continue all day today. right. be sure to join our active online discussion about the democratic national convention, do so on our facebook page, wnnfans.com. >>> now to the bizarre turn of events for one airline passenger. the man was flying home to te
